national_geographic_green_summer_2010_coverInteresting and comprehensive feature on eco fashion by Daisy Dumas in National Geographic Green, Summer 2010, examining which materials really are better for the environment.  The article covers natural fibres, natural man-made fibres and synthetic man-made fibres.

 

The feature includes interviews with myself and Orlsola da Castro, co-founder of From Somewhere and curator of Estethica, the ethical section of London Fashion Week http://www.fromsomewhere.co.uk/ and Dr Kate Fletcher, author of a book which I can highly recommend on Sustainable Fashion and Textiles http://www.katefletcher.com/
